python datetime 时区,带有时区的Python datetime.now（）

I have a timezone which is float (for example 4.0).

I want to construct datetime with given timezone.

I tried this,

datetime.now(timezone)

but it throws

TypeError: tzinfo argument must be None or of a tzinfo subclass, not type 'float'

So I wonder how can I make tzinfo from float?

If you are using Python 3.2 or newer, you need to create a datetime.timezone() object; it takes an offset as a datetime.timedelta():

offset = timezone(timedelta(hours=timezone)

datetime.now(offset))

For earlier Python versions, it'll be easiest to use an external library to define a timezone object for you.

The dateutil library includes objects to take a numerical offset to create a timezone object:

from dateutil.tz import tzoffset

offset = tzoffset(None, timezone * 3600) # offset in seconds

datetime.now(offset)
